Budgets and Halloween baskets were the order of the day when the ASLC met for its regular meeting Oct. 17.
The ASLC announced that its budget, which runs into thousands of dollars, would be revised and printed out every two weeks to reflect the changing nature and obligations of student government. No further details were given.
The ASLC announced it would hold a Halloween Party from 6 p.m.-8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 31, in the Student Center. A budget of $500 ($175 for candy) is allotted for the event, and the ASLC hopes to coordinate with the Laney Culinary Club to cater food and drink.
A photo booth is also planned. Volunteers are needed to decorate the Student Center on Wednesday, Oct. 30; those interested should contact the ASLC office on the fourth floor of the Student Center.
